"Enjoyed our food. Had to wait 45 minutes for our desert's which we felt was unacceptable as the restaurant wasn't overly busy when we booked!! Emily couldn't apologise enough for not getting our desserts to us. We were offered free coffee which we accepted by way of an apology, however, we couldn't drink it as it was too strong, despite us adding numerous amounts of sugar to try and sweeten the taste!! Carvery was of very high standard but could be better organised in where it's situated as whilst we were queueing members of staff were constantly using the side doors to obtain entrance to and from the bar and kitchen!! Serving spoons and/or tongs are definitely needed to plate up our vegetables, there wasn't much in the way if a selection of green vegetables. That certainly needs addressing. I also felt one reception staff very stressed on the day in question and not very sure what was going on with regards to Christmas and New Year event's. I know the Christmas Fayre was happening but I got the impression that she couldn't get away from me quick enough when I was enquiring the venue etc etc."

"Booked for lunch based on the on line menu, which was probably my mistake, in thinking that is what could be on offered, when you visit. We ended up with two beef dishes, which were rather chewy, so much so I had to pop along the road to purchase some emergency, dental floss at the chemist to restore my teeth. Strange welcome from a customer not the staff. Service was close to slow but pleasant. The other dinners were too loud and most were swearing far more than necessary than needed at lunch time."

"Here is an example of a dining room punching well above its weight and with charges to match £55 for 3 course meal . The basic food choice on the menu is good and varied 3 meats, 2 fish and a couple of vegetarian dishes but the subtext reveals it is to be doctored with other incongruous ingredients by a clever chef perhaps to justify its boast of fine dining to the highest standard or its 2 rosettes. English good quality food, well prepared should not need to be embellished or enhanced . Service was slow. Delivered almost entirely by a young waitress who could only manage one speed, a Caesar salad took over an hour to serve. She had not been taught table service and admitted knowing nothing of wine. Earlier promise by Ray or Roy to host our experience evaporated, he was seen only fleetingly. Had he been more in evidence things might have been better. And, to add to the dismal experience 12.5% was added to the bill for service? Breakfast was good and nicely presented except that the fruit salad on the menu was absent. Although the ingredients were all there on the buffet, it seems no-one had been bothered to prepare it. So, if you go here to eat, I wish you a better experience. I shall not return."

"We brought our family to the Derby Inn right before Christmas, with a mix of adults and kids ranging from 2 to 14 years old, and we had a wonderful lunch. The staff was very friendly and accommodating to the children's needs, and the food was delicious. There was a great variety of options on the menu, including good choices for the kids, and the portion sizes were generous. We will definitely be returning again!"

"We were 4 adults and 2 children 9 13 and the menu offered a range of food to satisfy us all. The service was excellent timely. friendly and perceptive. The cooking is good standard stuff doesn’t pretend and isn’t) to be cutting edge or haute cuisine. A reliable place to have a solid meal. My only concern was that the piped music was too obtrusive."

"I have to give the lowest rating possible due to my experience with this restaurant. I made a reservation for a birthday celebration, but when we arrived, the restaurant was closed, despite a sign on the door indicating they should have been open. I wasn’t contacted to inform me about the cancellation of my booking, and my calls went unanswered. As a result, I was left without a reservation on my sister’s birthday, which was extremely disappointing, especially since we were looking forward to dining here. They need to either update their opening hours or improve their online booking system to prevent this from happening in the future."

"My husband and I were given a Le Monde Luxury Afternoon Tea voucher as a gift so I booked a table for the afternoon of the day that suited us. The sandwiches, cakes, scones etc were nice enough but the service that we received was terrible. On arriving the waiter asked if he could get us a glass of Prosecco and when I said that it stated on the voucher that it was to be Champagne he said that he would go and check taking the voucher with him. He came back and we were given our two glasses of Champagne. Later we were served our cups of tea, coffee etc. At no point were we asked if everything was ok. The restaurant was not busy as there were only another two tables occupied. We have had afternoon tea many times before in various hotels and restaurants including The Dome next door and have always been asked if we would like more tea or coffee and it does state on Le Monde’s website that Afternoon Tea is served with plentiful tea or coffee. As we had only been served one cup at the start I asked the waiter when he came back to clear the table if we could have another coffee and tea. He came back with the coffee and a glass cup of tea (no saucer) with a teabag hanging over the side of the cup and milk not in a jug but in a small tumbler. Not what you expect to get with afternoon tea and certainly not a luxury afternoon tea!It was very disappointing considering the giver of the present wanted us to have a really nice time. Although we have enjoyed several visits to Le Monde in the past which we have enjoyed we will not be returning. I was there in December with a friend and again the service left a lot to be desired and we were also overcharged but we managed to get that rectified."

"we have booked our table at the arrival, we were informed that the kitchen was going a little after, as there are many customers, so there will be about an hour waiting for the food. an hour passed, the waitress updates us that it will be another minute or so. we finally got our food served, but the steak was much over cooked, as we asked for medium-sized, the steak salad also cooked over to eat the point that it was too chewing (even if it was mentioned in the menu that it serves medium). overall it was a real disappointment from beginning to end."

"A restaurant that I kept passing by and feeling awfully guilty for not trying as I live very close to it. Decided to try this place of us) we had no idea what to have so asked the Lady who served us. She was honest and very helpful. Advised us to only try the Veggie Combo Special the Combo Special (meat). We were a little shocked that that's all she advised us and said it was enough. We had to wait a while for the food to get to us. When it did it really blew us away! The taste, the mixture if veggies used, meat beautifully prepared and a taste that was unforgettable. We later decided to find out further and learnt that the waitress was actually the owner, a lovely lady named Zighe...read more"

"A pub with exceptional service from the moment you walk in you're treated with respect and helpful advice. The staff, even though the majority are very young are very polite and helpful. The quality of the food is excellent and at very competitive prices. The location allows you to relax immediately and to enjoy the scenery whilst also enjoying your choice from the very comprehensive menu. The food was quickly delivered, very well presented and delicious. The amount of outside seating allowed customers to spread out to the many seating areas bordering the river. It was a thoroughly enjoyable lunch thank you to the staff of Mill on the Exe."

"Booked ahead of a stay in Chester after searching for the best restaurants. The only availability was two stools in the window but I’m so glad we took them as it provided a great spot for people watching. We just had some olives to start and they were amazing (a Spanish queen olive called Gordal). We shared the paella for main which is made fresh to order. It was really very good, washed down with a French gin called G’vine which was new to me (and I have tried a lot of gin). I was impressed that the G&T was served in a small glass rather than the huge stemmed glasses which drip condensation due to the massive amount of ice. Finally we shared the baked cheesecake which was very rich and nicely accompanied with a fig jam and strawberry. This restaurant is not cheap, however the food was great quality, cooked fresh and the staff were lovely, so definitely worth it. The decor is low key and very clean. I think the price reflects the location and I would definitely recommend it for a romantic meal or celebration."

"A meeting of friends was the reason for our visit. On arrival, after being shown to our table, we gave a drinks order which was brought quickly by the pleasant waitress. The extensive menu gave plenty of choice, although predominantly Italian. Alongside the main menu which offered a two course or three course fixed price menu, was also a specials board with a number of other tempting dishes. My companions decided on a two course menu, and I plumped for just one course, the Cajun prawn sizzler. This came with side salad, coleslaw, corn on the cob, chips and onion rings. The prawns were plump and juicy and served on a bed of peppers and onions. A very good sized portion. My friend chose a chicken calzone served with a tomato sauce and was packed with filling, and was very tasty. Our other companion chose Italian meatballs served with risotto rice and salad. She also was impressed with her meal, being a good portion and nicely presented. Although I did not have a dessert, but a coffee, both friends chose a chocolate orange cake with cream and a salted caramel cake with ice cream . The first was a large slice of a light orange cake, which reported as delicious. The salted caramel cake was lovely, however a little sickly and my friend was unable to finish her portion. A total of £60 for 3 mains and 2 desserts with 4 soft drinks and 3 hot drinks. Great value for a delicious meal. One word of criticism a terrible draught from an open door on an icy evening is not a pleasant experience. It was impossible to get warm again after this and my friend ended up wearing her coat towards the end of our meal. Did affect our comfort and enjoyment on this occasion. Mentioned to waitress but little she could do."

"Very nice cosy and welcoming atmosphere, all the steaks had a small bit of fat but the taste made it value for money. The fish dishes were only comparable to the taste of sheer luxury and the waiter was friendly in describing the exotic tastes so we know as much as we can about what we are ordering and you better be placing your bets that they were right. I am told by the people who accompanied me on this meal that the strawberry sling cocktail was ‘fruity, delicious and highly recommended to other gin-lovers’. Everything from the herbs used in the Caesar sauce to the exact time the steak was cooked for and the bubbles in the Pepsi to the size of the chips was catered for and worth the money, 24 hours a day, everyday of the week, 365 days of the year! Would recommend."

"I stopped by for a few drinks and now it's confirmed that the Bell Inn is the most expensive pub in the area. The decor is decent but a bit worn in some areas, and the men's restroom is still filthy. This really detracts from our overall impression of the pub. After seeing the state of the toilets, it doesn't make you want to eat there. My partner refuses to even go there because of the disgusting restrooms."

"After taking a walk along the coast and returning, we were quite hungry. Unfortunately, most places had already closed for the day, and we were disappointed to find out that the local fish and chip shop in Lizard doesn't offer Gluten Free options. However, we were relieved to stumble upon this restaurant. The staff was accommodating and showed us the menu with gluten-free options. They promptly served us drinks and the food arrived not long after. The meal was delicious and satisfying!"

"Have visited this restaurant a couple of times before and have never been disappointed. Booked to go on a Sunday afternoon with my partner and our friend. On arrival they had no idea about our booking despite open table sending me a confirmation email . Thankfully the restaurant was very quiet with only tables occupied . Once seated we immediately asked for a jug of water, this took minutes and more requests . The waitress half filled our water glasses then took the jug away with her. My partners prawn starter was cold. There was a very long wait between courses. My pasta main was cold and I sent it back, on receiving another it was inedible. It tasted like oil. My creamed garlic spinach was disgusting and tasted like salty water. My partner then informed the manager. To be fair to him he was really good and couldn't do enough to try and compensate. I don't eat meat or fish and the only veg option was the one I'd sent back, he offered to make me something not on the menu however my companions had nearly finished their main. He bought me some complimentary foccacia which was good. My partner ordered a sauce for his steak as the first was very small, this never arrived however was put on the bill. Very very disappointed and doubt we will return. The two stars awarded are solely for the proffesional and courteous manager."
